This article proposes a hybrid evaluation method of electromagnetic force and vibration for electrical machines considering high-frequency current harmonics caused by the inverter. First, the permeance and armature magnetomotive force (MMF) is calculated based on the virtual MMF and the slot matrix. Then, the air-gap flux density and electromagnetic force construction process under arbitrary current is thoroughly studied. The vibration transfer function is obtained by utilizing the modal analysis and the modal test. Finally, the vibration can be calculated according to the modal superposition method. By applying this method to an interior permanent magnet machine, it can significantly reduce the computation efforts compared with the multiphysics procedure due to the extensive use of the finite-element method. In addition, the accuracy of this method is validated by conducting an experimental study.
